With this release, I am breaking (only once, hopefully) the sequence
of scheduled release of xkeyboard-config.

This release is highly recommended (realistically - required) for GNOME3.

The most important change in this release is totally redesigned
approach to user-visible descriptions. That huge work (reworking ALL
descriptions!) was done by William Jon McCann of RedHat.

After those changes were made, it took a lot of work from the
Translation Project guys to update the translations. I want to thank
all translators who found some time last week to work on
xkeyboard-config.

My special gratitude goes to Catalan, Danish, German, Italian, Korean,
Polish, Russian (go Russia!), Spanish, Swedish and Ukrainian
translators - they covered whopping 100% (933 lines)!

Additional change that might affect you: the run-time dependencies of
xkeyboard-config are checked at the build time. If that annoys you -
use --disable-runtime-deps.

There are also some new layouts, variants, model - usual stuff...

So, here it is:

http://www.x.org/releases/individual/data/xkeyboard-config/xkeyboard-config-2.2.tar.gz

The tag in git is xkeyboard-config-2.2

Bugzilla: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=xkeyboard-config

There will be another release 2.3 in May (as it was planned, 4 months
from January). It is already found that some descriptions need minor
amendments - but I do not expect that huge wave of changes that you
can see in 2.2

Regards,

Sergey
